Sfs colour challenge for Feb 2013!!

Ok so the colour challenge was red, green and craft...I have submitted 2 LO's for this challenge this month...

"Got my suck on" quote came from teenagers these days refer to the hand gesture my boy is doing as "Rock on" so I altered it a lil lol...again with the washi tape background and hidden journalling card behind the bottom photo, I really like this LO as I am a lover I bright colours...
My next LO was a pic taken Christmas 2011 and it's probably the only good one from that year as we had a new puppy in the house and we couldn't keep the kids still long enough to pose for photos lol...I have used glimmer mists and distressed my pattern papers and I'm a huge fan of Charms Creations and they are making their way onto all of my LO's ATM and I'm also loving ACETATE what a great way to add another element!!! Hope you enjoy today's blog...
TFL much love Em x;)

So 2 blogs in 3days......getting better!!

Hey fellow scrappers,
Well this blog I'm posting my take for challenges over at scrapbooking from scratch-January challenges...I loved all these challenges and of course the end results were amazing, particularly the sketch LO being the yellow one I LOVE IT!! The quote one is my next favourite bring that I don't often scrap a page of my hubby and I but the quote fitted the picture perfectly "be in love with your life, every minute of it"...the third LO is of my precious lil angel and I absolutely love this pic of her but this LO just doesn't seem to feel right I'm not sure what it is but yeah I think I might have to adjust it one day lol....
TFL ;) Em xo

Sooooooo, it's been a while....:/

Sorry guys I have been super slack with my blogging but a new year has snuck past and I can't believe we're already into February, OMG times flying!!! So first of all I wanted to share my sketch, colour and quote challenges I completed for Scrapbooking from scratch (aka SFS) for December 2012...I challenged myself within each of these layouts to use acetate and I was pretty pleased with the finished product on all accounts...so here's my challenges & LO's I hope you like them and they inspire you to get scrappin'!!

Busy, busy, busy.....

With Christmas just around the corner and my spring cleaning still not done I'm going crazy!!! I have a plan though and so I got in early and have finished my LO's for all 3 challenges set over at SFS, I'm just yet to take pic's and upload them but don't worry they will be up before Christmas then my next item on my list is to get presents wrapped....I know I'm very slack this year but it's my second favorite part of Christmas!! The best parts seeing all the lil ones (and the big ones) rip them open....I can't wait!!! Then onto the cleaning and decluttering, that's exciting too as I want to start the new year fresh and ready...it's my new years resolution!!...wish me luck!!
Watch me go!! Hahahahaha....
TFL...<3 Em xo

My colour challenge for SFS November

This LO required the colours lime, teal, darkish blue, fawn and chocolate...I was totally thinking that this would be impossible but I think this is so far my favorite LO ever!!! I LOVE IT!!!
I've used a few of charms creations pretties on this LO... 2 x lime/teal lovely lollipops and a lime rainbow runner....love love love your creations charm!!!! I have to say I am loving the crafters workshop templates and paint at the moment....

My take on charms sketch...Let's Play

This was the first attempt of a sketch for me and I had absolutely no idea what to do lol.....my LO started on the white 12x12 cardstock but I altered it once I realized I had the wrong concept of a sketch hahaha....
I also was also under the impression I had to use elements from the sketch such as the diamond shape, so that's the reason for the chevron washi I have mismatched each piece to create the diamond effect...in all I'm pretty pleased with the LO but next time I know what I'm doing lol...

A first for everything.....

This LO I have completed for Charm's 123 challenge for November which is the colour "pastels" the word "sweet" and some "wire".... It was a first for me to use pattern paper on the background rather than just white space.. And pastels?!? Well that was definately a first for me as I love grunge/bright colour LO's usually..
I'm so pleased with the end result....
Leave a comment plz as I'd love some feedback...
TFL Em ;)
